This means that Chevening scholars already in the UK may be eligible to apply to either the Graduate or the Skilled Worker route.</p><p>The Graduate route allows individuals to spend 2-3 years in the UK looking for and undertaking work at any skill level, before switching into another economic route (including the Skilled Worker route). The Skilled Worker route provides a pathway to settlement.</p> more like this
